Why would you force a business to pay sick leave?
Why not set up your own business and pay yourself and your employees sick leave?
(If you think this sounds stupid, you need to think about it a bit more)
Paid sick leave and what passes for "workers rights" these days is the opposite of protecting small businesses.
Actually, you will find that big business loves those things because it puts their competitors on the ropes.
Canada is currently having an issue where the protestors have been told they're not allowed to block peoples' access to railway tracks/places of business. The protesters are VERY upset because they've confused their "right to protest" with their "right to kidnap." And generally the only ones we allow to kidnap people are the Dutch.
